BURSTAlex Megos has released several films documenting a recent trip to Red River Gorge where he tries a project at the Chocolate Factory. Megos, who has climbed several 5.15s, said the project could be 5.15c or harder.
The project is the direct start of Pure Imagination, a famous 5.14c opened by Jonathan Siegrist in 2010 at 5.14d. The project starts with a fingery boulder crux at around V12 before climbing Pure Imagination.
Megos flashed Pure Imagination in 2012 and he’s established several other hard routes at the Gorge – read about them here. The hardest sport route in America currently is the direct start to Jumbo Love in California – read about it here.
